A yandere (ヤンデレ; pronounced [jaɰ̃deɾe]) is a type of character in anime and manga characterised by being affectionate, becoming either possessive or obsessive. The term is a portmanteau of the words yanderu (病んでる), meaning (mentally or emotionally) ill, and deredere (でれでれ, "lovey dovey"), meaning to show genuinely strong romantic affection.
